Background
Bioluminescence is a highly sensitive and versatile detection method used to monitor transcriptional regulation in live cells or lysates. The high signal-to-noise ratio of this system makes it ideal for detecting subtle changes in gene expression.
Pathways
Luciferase activity serves as a downstream reporter for gene transcription events initiated by upstream ligand-receptor interactions. It is frequently used to map intracellular signaling responses to hormones, cytokines, and drugs.
